I have searched google. Couldn't find a solution for this case. Also MRT tecnician joined . And said its WD security password. But how could decrypt this data?


What is your advices.

I dont have same model drive in my hand. I would try to find a same model drive, and clone data to it, and try to look with patient PCB.

MRT doesn't extract EDEK correctly from that type of encryption.
I have made a video on how to manually extract EDEK from module 25 with an hex editor.

The interesting part starts from 2m 40s
